Plan

Which decade of modern music (60s - 10s) Is the most energetic in movement? We will determine this by comparing multiple playlists based on ‘energy’ and ‘danceability’

We will use Spotify made playlists of all decades (given the fact that the algorithm is also made by Spotify this seemed fitting).

Playlists used:


For some reason I’m unable to display more than one Key-, Chordo-, Chromagram without them overlapping.

Histogram


Here we have a clear view of the frequency of every energy level of every song in each playlist. This puts us one step closer to deciding which decade was the “Party Decade”.

Chordogram/Keygram

I’m still standing - Elton John


These are the Keygram and Chordogram from one of the outliers. I haven’t had the chance to compare these to other songs from my Corpus.
